Cats in HiElatfo1tndes.

The effect of b Elth Ades on cats is
provoking local d. &w. A real-estate
agent writes as follows, "Apropos of
the sub Get OF the influences of high alti-
tudes on animals it may be stated that
there were numerous deaths among the
felines in Montana during the SOS, when
there we're no smelter 70 account for it.
A cat. without warning, would stagger
around and fall, like an elder under the
influence of hydrated oxide of the by
pothecal radical ethyl, and, lying dor
mant for a time, it would get up, ap-
pareutly a little worse for the wear and
icar. aud, after describing a few geome
trical figures on the floor, shoot out of
the door like n shot out OF a gun. Next
day you would find her among the brush

have been caused, hLwever, by eating

The following anecdote is related of
Lord Palmcrst0n, lie was travelling
Forth on one occasion, and purchased a

The managers thought moment, then
took two third class tickets. handed
them 10 two chimney sweeps standing
on the Platform and usher,d them into

tickets, took the sweeps out and ushered
them into the first class coach. The re

The arid zone, the land that has so lon,

and whose only crop for many years was
banxrupts, is now being rapidly settled
During the past wear almost zoo, coo poo
people s tiled on that potion of it which
lies in Kansas. The rain belt has moved
westward far beyond the Tooth meridian
or, to be more accurate, new rain bel;
has leea created. For thirteen years.
from 1870 TO 1888, men ente cd the arid
zone, built houses, plowed the prairie
sod, sowei gram, and attempted TO arm.
They lost their money, their time, and.
in many cases, their courage Many Of
these men returned East to live on their
wives relatives. Other men took the
abandoned houses and ard farms, and in
time these. too. became bankrupt and re-
turned to the Esst or pushed westward
to the highlands All men Of intelli-
gence knew that the arid zone was unfit
for agricultural purposes. They knew
that the physical confguration of the
land lying west of the arid belt, and
which controls its Climate. could not be
changed. The settlers, eager for land
and homes, continued to POUR into the
dry region. At last they have becl re-
warded. They have secured three con
secutive crops Of grain, and the fourth
crop Of wheat is in sight. SO much rain

was once the arid belt that it IS no longer
